Londoners Flock To Ottawa: TOP 10 LIST

Who can forget Mayor Mark Sutcliffe’s trip to London to promote Ottawa?

The English have the whole of Europe to discover but Sutcliffe and friends took on the Olympian task of convincing some of the most sophisticated people in the world to cross the big pond to visit Shawarma Town on The Rideau.

Some argue that Sutcliffe’s time could have been better spent getting people from Watertown, N.Y., to come to Ottawa but not our mayor. How could you keep the residents of the capital of the whole Commonwealth down on the farm when they’ve sampled Barrhaven?

But The Bulldog, always as a public service, investigates why Londoners would come to Ottawa.

We do this by way of a Top 10 List.

Top 10 Reasons Londoners Would Come To Ottawa After Mayor Mark Sutcliffe’s Trip To England:

10. Need a rest;

9. LRT derail-athon;

8. Solve the mystery of what’s a Gee-Gee?

7. Lansdowne Park concrete museum;

6. Meet former mayor at Walmart;

5. Sunset over LeBreton Flats;

3. Monte Carlo? Rideau Carleton Raceway … Future Hard Rock;
